A good night’s sleep is one of our most important tools for optimal health! Our bodies heal during sleep. Deep sleep is linked to increased levels of Human Growth Hormone (HGH), which is believed to have anti-aging properties. HGH helps us burn fat, build muscle, tighten skin, and even sleep better!
A Natural Approach
Contrary to popular belief, sleeping pills can interfere with deep sleep! Instead, you can use Chinese medicine and Functional medicine to restore healthy sleep.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can calm the nerves and regulate hormones.
Acupuncture can help:
- Reduce anxiety
- Cut sugar craving
- Increases serotonin, a brain neurotransmitter that elevates mood
- Help eliminate insomnia and other sleep-related issues
Balancing your stress hormone
Functional medicine can help balance cortisol, our stress hormone. High levels of cortisol during the night can diminish our quality of sleep. Other possible causes of insomnia include gut pathogens, such as parasites and harmful bacteria, and hormonal imbalances, all of which can be tested and corrected.
